Thanks I tested your solution and that works.
One of the things that didn't work was
for chunk in myfile.read(10):
info1, info2, info3 = struct.unpack('<IIH', chunk)
It gets an error saying unpack requires a string of length 10, which I
thought chunk would be after the read(10). I'm still a little
confused as to why.
But thanks very much Steven, for a working solution.
